> Also, I am the exec involved and I've done quite a lot for the Git community over the years. I would never try to have my "own copy" of it, that's ridiculous. I wrote and open sourced the Pro Git book (https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2) and Git community book before it (https://schacon.github.io/gitbook/index.html), I created the official Git website (https://git-scm.com), I cofounded GitHub which hosts nearly all open source in the world, I have evangelized and supported the Git ecosystem for almost 20 years now. I restarted and funded development of libgit2 15 years ago, which you could similarly argue was an exec trying to have our "own copy" of Git under a more permissive license and would have been a similarly ridiculous argument.

This "I am Scott Chacon" part doesn't matter. 95% of people here already know.
